Upgrade CPU or Graphics Card?

[Flying_Nut]

Hi guys,

A question for you please:-

I currently have two 6800GTs in SLi config and an A64 (Winchester core) 3500 CPU. I overclock the latter by 5% using Gigabyte Easy Tune utility when I want to play graphically demanding games such as Fear etc, although I'm limited to a max res of 1280 by 1024 on my 19" monitor.

Which would give me the best return upgrade wise please, replace the two 6800GTs with a single 7900GTX or upgrade the CPU first to say a dual core 4400 or the like?

Thanks in anticipation of sagely words of wisdom!

Sorry but thought that would be relevant seeing as it relates to both components. Happy to delete if somebody tells me how!

The two GTs should be pretty decent for your 1280 x 1024 res. I mean, are you satisfied with the way games play? Do you want to multitask?

Id go for a cpu, if thats the res, not too high ....cpu would be nice.
